PuTTY wish transparency

summary: Transparent or translucent PuTTY windowclass: wish: This is a request for an enhancement.difficulty: fun: Just needs tuits, and not many of them.priority: never: We don't ever intend to fix this.

A transparent, semi-transparent or alpha-blended PuTTY window. We
think this is pointless frippery and would bloat the binary to no
useful purpose.

There are third-party utilities which will do this for you without us
needing to modify PuTTY; have a look at
PowerMenu
and also
Glass2k.
(Although these apparently don't keep the text opaque, which is
apparently not what people want.)

Alternatively, there are several third-party solutions on our
links page.
